Great location on the beach! Very quiet and peaceful. We had a great time on our vacation and would definitely recommend this property. House is very spacious with great living/lounging spaces. Even better than the pictures.

We arrived on a rainy day but were pleasantly surprised by the large indoor spaces and beautiful flowers that the hosts left for us.
The neighbourhood is lovely - very quiet, friendly - and the private beach is large. Lots of space for digging, playing, walking, reading. Nice combination of sun & shade on the deck and I migrated frequently to the deck chairs to curl up with a good book.
Balm Beach is close enough to walk to for ice cream (about 1km) but far enough away that few people walked across "our" beach.
We spent some time exploring the local area: biked to Penetanguishene along the groomed bike trail, visited Ste. Marie Among the Hurons, went to Midland for a dinner out.
A nice, relaxing holiday.

Our hosts Daniel and Natalie were wonderful! They provided us with great hiking locations, and when we got to the home everything we needed was there for us. The house is gorgeous, very clean with an amazing view. The beach is private and quiet, and we enjoyed every single minute of it. We loved waking up there, and didn't want to leave. A great getaway from the city. We look forward to renting this property again!

Wow, this cottage is fantastic!
The view is even better then in the pictures, watching sunset here is beautiful! We really loved this place. The kids played al lot at the beach and there were toys for them as well. We're certainly recommend this place and will come back if we're in this area.
Thank you Daniel!

We booked this place late in the evening the day before and received a response almost right away. We went the next day with instructions from Natalie. The place and view is more amazing than expected! From the moment you walk out the back porch and see the Georgian Bay with the Blue Mountains in the background, you realize you've found a little piece of paradise just an hour and a half from Toronto. The owners are on the upper level of the house and the cottage is a walk out basement with 3 bedrooms and a huge living room and dining room. We made a bonfire on the beach both nights as well as use the wood stove inside the house on the first night. The BBQ is brand new. The furnishings more than sufficient. Wifi and cable included. We were there late April and we had the beach all to ourselves. Don't forget to bring linen and towels (including dish towels) and buy your firewood in town on the highway. We will definitely come back!

Wonderful cottage with a beautiful view of Georgian bay and the Blue Mountains. Was just what we were looking for: a quiet, comfortable and relaxing place. It was very clean and spacious, and actually much bigger than we expected!
The hosts were very friendly and helpful with anything we needed. We would definitely stay again.
